Features: The slogan of Cool Donkey is: "Don't take the beaten path, only love strangers!" The way we face walking determines the direction of the information, the characteristics of the content, and the style of the series. The self-guided tourism philosophy we recognize and advocate is: authentic, simple, straightforward, and seeking a certain artistic conception. Our goal is to convey a more down-to-earth approach—walking close to the earth instead of back-and-forth flights or taking taxis, and a more cutting-edge travel concept—traveling for freedom. Travel far and wide to know the scenery; explore the depths to understand the culture; tread the hardships to realize the spirit. Westward to Hexi, southward to Gannan, then Ningxia holds hardship, warmth, silence, surprise, and the meaning of ideals and walking. Because Gannan is there, and because we are walking. Stared blankly without the sound of a winding river flowing around the Langmusi; soared ideals but not on the Sangke Grassland in summer; seen piety but not the prostration on the ground in Labrang Monastery; seen sunsets but not the sunset at Jiayuguan with the line "A solitary column of smoke rises from the desert, and the long river rounds off like the sun"; walked far but not on the Silk Road under the Qilian Mountains; eaten Lanzhou hand-pulled noodles but not Ma Baozi beef noodles in Lanzhou.
